"of course I remember."
"Get rid of Kaguya! This is the secret mission you gave me!"
"My subordinates are incompetent and failed to complete this task..."
Natsume took a deep breath and turned around.
To Otsutsuki Japanese style, he blamed himself very firmly and regretfully.
But actually.
Natsume has already tightened her body, ready to escape from here at any time...
Because, the answer to this bullshit secret mission.
It was just his guess.
He himself couldn't be sure whether it was right or not, so he had no choice but to take a gamble!
I really guessed wrong and was exposed.
Then we can only run away at high speed...
…
Ahead, Otsutsuki Japanese style did not respond.
Instead, there was rare silence.
There was silence for nearly ten seconds...
Natsume thought that the other party was about to get violent.
Then, the powerful Otsutsuki Hashiki said quietly:
"It's good if you still remember."
"It doesn't matter if you fail this time."
"There will be another chance."
"It depends on whether you can grasp it anymore..."
"Get down!"
Hearing this, Natsume's hanging heart finally dropped.
The tense muscles finally relaxed.
"Did you get it right?"
"Am I so lucky?"
"What kind of bullshit secret mission is it really to get rid of Kaguya?"
Natsume wondered in his heart.
But he didn't dare to stay.
He immediately exited the hall and left here.
If possible, Natsume really doesn't want to continue to face this cunning Otsutsuki Rishi.
Fighting against this kind of enemy is really fatal!
compare to.
Back then, the battle of wits and courage with the old thief Danzo was as easy and comfortable as playing house.
I really miss it!
…
Less than two minutes.
Natsume followed the memory of when she came and walked all the way around the tower.
After coming out.
Natsume subconsciously looked back at the tower and sighed in his heart:
"It's so dangerous!"
"It was almost exposed..."
"However, although the Otsutsuki clan is powerful, they cannot escape the original sin nature of intelligent creatures!"
"Wherever there are people, there will inevitably be a struggle for power!"
In fact, Natsume's answer just now was indeed a guess.
But it’s not a baseless guess.
Before coming, Kaguya told herself:
in the last tens of thousands of years.
The senior officials of the Otsutsuki family and the royal family have never been on good terms with each other.
It is probably similar to the relationship between various kingdoms, nobles and royal families in medieval Europe during Xia's current life.
They all want to suppress each other and seize more power!
And this phenomenon.
What Natsume saw and heard after coming to this [Shigen World] further confirmed this!
So associated.
[Otsutsuki Ishiki], a senior subordinate of the family, will team up with [Kaguya], the princess of the branch family, to carry out an ordinary planting task.
It doesn't look very reasonable.
There is no power struggle between the [Nobles] and the [Royal Family] involved in this, and no one would believe it!
That's why.
Only the top management of the family would specifically target Kaguya Otsutsuki and frequently use various tasks to trap and suppress her.
Are you trying to weaken the royal family's power by first wiping out the branch of the royal family?
This is also the Otsutsuki Japanese style that belongs to the 'aristocratic' lineage.
The reason why during the planting mission, Kaguya was deliberately forced to sacrifice the sacred tree and die...
Because, the order received in one form:
[Just find an opportunity to get rid of Kaguya reasonably]!
In this way, it makes sense.
Why did the original Otsutsuki Ishiki never dare to contact the family after being attacked by Kaguya?
First, it was because the planting mission failed and the fruits were swallowed, and I was afraid of being punished by the family.
Secondly, it’s also because you failed to get rid of Kaguya, so you don’t dare to come back and report to the Japanese master, right?
Deduced based on this entire logical chain.
Only then did Natsume guess the secret mission assigned by Japan.
certainly.
Natsume couldn't deny that a lot of this was gambling.
But it seems that I still made the right bet!
only.
Natsume's bet was not just about guessing the secret mission correctly.
There is also a deeper level of deception!
…
at the same time.
In the high tower, in the beautiful and profound starry sky hall.
Momoshiki, who is also highly trusted by Japan, is not in a hurry to leave.
Instead, he mustered up the courage to ask his boss:
"Sir, are you doubting Ishiki?"
The Japanese expression remained the same and he said calmly: "Yes."
Momoshiki: "That secret mission?"
Japanese style: "He did not answer wrong. That is indeed what I told him; being able to bury a princess of a separate royal family in a reasonable manner will indeed help suppress the royal family."
"I see! In that case, Yi Shi should be fine, right?"
Taoshi suddenly understood.
Although he did not dare to judge the power struggle between senior officials and the royal family.
But for this secret mission of murdering members of the royal family, he is still a little concerned.
After all, you never know one day.
Will such a similar task be assigned to myself?
How should I implement it myself?
However, just when Taoshi was thinking wildly.
The Japanese master's response shocked his heart and made his scalp numb.
"He is indeed one type; but there is a high probability that it is not the original one type..."
Otsutsuki Japanese style grabbed the box containing the fruit of the sacred tree.
While playing with it, he said slowly with a deep smile.
Taoshi heard something vague and couldn't help but ask:
"My lord, what do you mean?"
"This guy, Yi Shi, is probably controlled by something, and his consciousness is distorted..."
Taoshi was shocked: "What?!!"
"Then, why didn't your Excellency take action and let him continue..."
Japanese smile slightly: "Do it? What's the benefit of that?"
Momoshiki: "We can eliminate the spies, and we can find out how Isshiki was controlled?"
"Then what?"
"Then……"
Tao Shi was speechless and couldn't tell what to do next.
But Japanese took the initiative to explain it:
"Then, we need to spend more energy to verify what force controls him..."
"It will also make other planting teams uneasy, thus reducing fruit returns..."
"In the end, the royal family may find an excuse to suppress us..."
"This is then."
"How much manpower is wasted? How much time is wasted? How many clues are left?"
"Oh, right."
"After that, we have to build on the fact that we can perfectly capture them alive."
"This guy dares to come back on his own initiative. Maybe he will have something to rely on."
"What if we let him escape? Or let him commit suicide?"
"Are you in charge?"
Otsutsuki Hashiki looked at Momoshiki with a half-smile, and asked without any worries.
Hearing this, Momoshiki was also startled, and a chill ran down her back.
He quickly knelt on the ground and complimented:
"My lord is far-sighted and far-sighted, indeed I am beyond your reach!"
"But, are we just going to let him go like this?"
Japanese chuckled again:
"Let it go?"
"It's just a long shot to catch the big fish."
"Let the prey squirm a bit and relax first. Wouldn't it lower the prey's vigilance?"
"One question, all questions..."
"I guess I can't leave that planet."
"After that, I will send you to go there personally to investigate what is weird on that planet?"
"What if that was a trap?"
"Wouldn't it be better?"
"Just in time to catch the being behind the confusing move, catch them all in one fell swoop!"
"By the way, let's get rid of Kaguya and put all the blame on those enemies."
"Is it not good?"
Otsutsuki arranged it with ease.
As one of the top brass of Otsutsuki, he is an old monster that has existed for tens of thousands of years.
How could he be easily deceived?
How can it be so easy to fool?
From the initial temptation to the later indulgence...
It can be said that the entire interview and reporting process was all part of his plan.
The purpose is to make the prey relax its vigilance!
To catch bigger fish...
This was the fundamental reason why he let Yi Shi go.
…
The cold and rigorous calculation made Tao Shi, who was lying on the ground, even more frightened.
"As expected of a Japanese-style adult!"
"Sure enough, everything is under the master's plan!"
"Damn Yi Shi! It turns out that it has been dominated by the enemy for a long time, and even I was deceived."
"If you turn around, you must make him pay the price!"
Taoshi secretly resented in her heart.
However, Otsutsuki Rashiki seemed to see through his mind.
He ordered again:
"Please keep this matter confidential and don't reveal it yet."
"So as not to be caught by the royal family;"
"It's not too late to reveal it after it's done."
"And during this period, you should not deliberately target Yi Shi, so as not to irritate him..."
Hearing this, Taoshi's scalp felt numb and she didn't dare to think about it further.
He quickly and fearfully agreed:
"As you command!"
Then, he quickly retreated.
